 * Hi davidw09,
 * The plugin does work on multisite. The plugin, by default, uses the absolute 
   URL for a document when the shortcode is rendered; however, if you edit the URL
   to a relative link you can successfully embed a PDF across the sub-domains of
   your multisite.
 * For example, by changing the shortcode used from:
 * [pdf-embedder url=”https://domain.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/filename.pdf”]
 * to
 * [pdf-embedder url=”/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/filename.pdf”]
 * Aka: strip out the leading “https://domain.com”.. it no longer matters what the
   site is known by. The file loads and is displayed. This method will work in the
   free and [Premium](https://wp-pdf.com/premium/) versions of the plugin but it
   will not work in the [Secure](https://wp-pdf.com/secure/) version of the plugin
   due to the security permissions there.
 * If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to send us an email to
   [contact@wp-pdf.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pdf-embeder-on-mutisite/contact@wp-pdf.com?output_format=md)
   as we may not see the forum posts in a timely fashion.
 * Emma
